Jook Junt app
The app lets you record or import performances, animate characters, customize their appearance, and export your creations. It does not require a JookJunt account. Photos, videos, audio, and face and body processing are handled on your device. The app does not automatically upload this content to JookJunt or send it to an external AI service.
Camera, microphone, and selected photos and videos
- Camera: Used with your permission to preview and record performances, detect body movements, and take a custom face photo.
- Microphone: Used with your permission to record audio with a performance.
- Photos and videos: The app receives items you choose through Apple's photo picker to import a performance, create a custom face head, or set a photo background. It does not scan your entire photo library. If an item is stored in iCloud Photos, Apple may download it to your device when you select it.
You can decline camera or microphone access and manage permissions in your device's Settings. Features that need a denied permission may be unavailable. You can still use the included example and other features that do not need that permission.
Face images and body movement processing
The app uses Apple's on-device Vision framework to locate a face or selected subject, crop a photo, remove its background, and estimate body-joint positions for animation. This processing is used to create your effects, not to identify who you are, authenticate you, or build an identity profile.
A processed custom face cutout is saved in the app's local storage so you can reuse it. Selecting an emoji does not delete the saved cutout. You can replace it with another face or delete it using Remove Face in the head picker. Source images and intermediate face-processing results are used during editing; the reusable image saved by this feature is the processed cutout.
Body-position estimates are used to animate the dancer and trails. Stick Game exports include time-stamped body-joint coordinates so the exported game can reproduce the movement. We do not receive face images or body-position data from this processing unless you choose to send that material to us, such as in a support email. The app does not use it for advertising or model training.
Local storage, retention, and deletion
- Saved Jooks: Recorded and imported videos, including their audio and saved names, stay in the app's storage until you delete them through My Jooks or delete the app. Discarding a pending recording or import removes the pending local video. Deleting an imported Jook does not delete its original from your photo library.
- Custom face: The saved face cutout stays until you replace it, choose Remove Face, or delete the app. Removing it does not erase the original photo or any previously exported video containing it.
- Photo background: The selected background is held in memory for the current app session rather than saved as a reusable background file. It can become part of a video you export.
- Preferences: The app stores settings such as custom head scale and cached Pro-unlock status on your device.
- Exports: The app creates local video and ZIP files for sharing. Export copies can remain in the app's storage after sharing or deleting the source Jook. Deleting the app removes its local data; offloading the app preserves its documents and data.
Depending on your device settings, app documents and preferences may be included in iCloud or computer backups. Restoring a backup may restore that data. Manage backups separately through Apple or your backup software. Deleting data inside the app does not remove copies already saved to Photos, Files, backups, or a service or person you shared with. We cannot remotely access or delete content stored only on your device.
Exports and sharing
When you export, the app creates the file on your device and opens Apple's share sheet. You decide whether and where to send or save it. Depending on your settings, a video may contain the source video, recorded audio, a custom face, or a selected background photo. Stick Game ZIP files contain movement data and the files needed to display the game.
The app does not automatically publish your creations. Any app, service, or recipient you choose handles the shared file under its own practices. The exported browser game loads the Three.js library from unpkg.com; opening it makes a request to that service that can reveal your IP address and browser request headers. That library request does not itself upload the exported movement file.
Pro purchases and Apple services
Pro purchases and purchase restoration use Apple's App Store and StoreKit. Apple processes payment and provides the app with transaction and entitlement information needed to verify and unlock Pro. The app stores a local indication of your unlock status. The app does not receive your payment-card number or Apple Account password. Apple handles its services under the Apple Privacy Policy.
App analytics and support
The native app does not include Google Analytics, advertising SDKs, or cross-app advertising tracking. Its photo, recording, and motion features do not send analytics to JookJunt. Apple may process App Store usage and diagnostic information under its own policies and your sharing settings.
If you use Send Feedback, the app prepares an email that includes the app version, build, iOS version, and device model. You can edit it and choose whether to send it. If you contact us, we receive your email address, message, and any attachments you provide, and use them to respond and troubleshoot. Email providers handle those communications. Please do not send recordings or photos you do not want us to receive.
Opening Visit Website or Privacy Policy takes you to our website. The website practices below, including Google Analytics, apply to those visits.
JookJunt website
Information you provide when ordering
The shop collects your name, email address, shipping address, optional phone number, and order details such as shirt sizes, colors, quantities, and notes. Order records also include an order identifier, date, totals, and checkout status.
When you select “Send order details” or “Pay securely with PayPal,” your order information is submitted to JookJunt, saved on the hosting server, and sent to the order contact by email. Selecting PayPal submits these details before you complete payment, so an order record can exist even if you do not finish checkout.
How order information is used
Order information is used to process your request, arrange delivery, and communicate with you about your order. Website hosting and email services handle information as part of providing those functions.
PayPal checkout
If you choose PayPal, the shop sends your name, email, shipping address, order identifier, and purchase details to PayPal to begin checkout. You enter payment credentials on PayPal; this website's order form does not collect card numbers or PayPal passwords. PayPal handles information under its own privacy policy, available on its website. PayPal checkout is for website orders; Pro purchases inside the app use Apple.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this website, including page visits and interactions. Google Analytics uses cookies to distinguish visits and collects information about your browser, device, and website activity. This information is sent to Google to provide analytics reports. Learn more about Google Analytics cookies and how Google safeguards Analytics data.
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings.
Browsing and the game demo
The game demo runs in your browser and loads the Three.js library from unpkg.com. That request exposes connection information, such as your IP address and browser request headers, to the external service.
The website host and external services may keep technical request logs or use their own technologies. The game demo does not request camera access or ask you to upload dance recordings.
Stored order information
Submitted orders are stored in server files and sent by email. To ask about information associated with your order, request a correction or deletion, or ask how long it is kept, contact chris.neese@gmail.com. Include your order identifier if available, but do not email payment passwords or card details.
Privacy requests and contact
For questions about the app or website, or to request access, correction, or deletion of information you have sent to us, email chris.neese@gmail.com. Explain whether your request concerns an order, support correspondence, or the app. We may need enough information to verify that the request concerns your information. For content stored only in the app, use the local deletion options described above.
